>>So, why do you have it called dtProject when it is a DataSet? And in your example, you *are* calling it dsProject, so perhaps your "dt" was a typo.

>>At any rate, you need to actually have an instance of the DataSet:

>>dsProject oData = new dsProject();
>>// next, you need some code to fill the dataset
>>// otherwise, you will have no rows in your dtProject table
>>lblCaption.Text = oData.dtProject[0].Caption;
